10. Well put. The previuos attack on atheists is precisely
How Christians discriminate against us. There are still 12 states that have laws barring atheists om state office, despite the constitutional prohibition.

When I ran for office, I was asked about my religion. Which church did I belong to? I told the questioner, none, and I am proud of it, she began calling people to vote against me, because my secular nature would be a bad example for the "childrens" and would lead them to paganism and Satan worship. I was tempted to add the flying spaghetti monster, but that was way above her capacity to grasp. I lost by 17 votes.
